thanks guys, im pretty happy with it, plenty of torque and not loud enough to get too much attention from the boys in blue:thumbsup:

almost identical to yours john, although ive got the black front going on whereas youve got the white/chrome.

bit of an update, got a hold of a VX calais garnish + tailights for $270 delivered, and looking into getting some 4" ballistic cats and a DUS OTR really soon.
to top it off hopefully getting the 19" hp design rims in shadow chrome.
